JUBILANT REPUBLICANS.
The Indiana Muddle Turning in Their
Favor.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 10.
The democratic caucus, which was in ses-
sion until midnight, developed wide difference
of opinion as to the policy TO be pursued in
the emergency created by the action of the
republicans IN the House today Messrs.
Mcdonald, VOORHEES, and Turpie were in at
tendance, but were unable to reconcile the
conflicting views which threaten utter col
lapse of the democratic campaign. A propo
sition looking to the resignation of the entire
democratic membership of both houses was
discussed, but did not meet with much favor.
The election contests in the Senate were con
sidered at some length, and it was decided to
take no action before Tuesday. The an
nouucement was made that the republicans
were ready to pledge themselves to unseat no
more democratic members OF the Honse,
provided the democrats would not disturb any
of the republican senators. There i. no
gainsaying the fact that d preston prevails
in democratic circles. while the republicans
appear more elated and confident than at any
time since the pending contest began. They
predict that Judge Ayers will tomorrow deny
Green Smiths petition for restraining order
upon Col Robertson, and claim to regard
Harrison's triumphant re election practi-
cally an assured fact.
In the circuit court, this morning, argu
ment was continued in the injunction pro-
ceedings of Senator Smith against Lieut..
Gov Robertson. Judge Turpie's argument
occupied nearly p hours, and was considered
exceedingly able and exhaustive. AT its
conclusion Judge Alexander c Ayres said
that he would withhold his decision until
Monday morning at o'clock. Many promi-
nent politicians of each of the two parties
were present, including ex-senator MELON
aid The chief point made by Mr.. Turpie
vas that the constitution only provided for
the election of governor and lieutenant gov
ernor every fJnr wears, and that, in case of
DEATH the offices filled by succession
that these four years terms were in the
nature of a reign or dynasty, and that vacan-
cies could not be supplied at biennial cleo
tions, even though a governor or lieutenant
governor should die immediately after induc
ton into office. He held that there had for
this reason been no election OF lieutesant
governor.
Judge Ayres' decision will be followed BY
an immediate appeal to the supreme court,
and final ruling may be handed down on
Tuesday, but this is not probable. Present
indications are that two joint conventions
viii be held. and that the democrats will elect
Judge Turpie Us senator and the republicans
Gen. Harrison.

PITTsBURG. Pa. ian. Is

PITTsBURG, Pa. Jan. Is.
Five masked robbers boarded Panhandle .
freight train near Sheridan station last night.
They were soon detected in the act of throw.
ing freight from the moving train, and, in a
desperate fight which ensued, Freeman Curlev
was shot through the leg and a brakeman
was knocked senseless with stone The
trainmen then gave up the fight to attend to
the injured men. The cars were loaded with
merchandise, and when nearing Sheridan
tunnel the engineer noticed that the train
was dragging. Upon investigation it wa.
found that the brakes had been set on three
cars. The train was stopped. and the rob-
bers surmising what was up, jumped from
the cars. A hand tohand tussel followed,
but the robbers soon gave up the fight and
started to run. Two brakemen gave chase
and we're fast running their game down. The
robbers turned upon their pursuers, shooting
one and Draining the other with stones. The
injured men were carried back to the train
and their wounds dressed. Guns, ammunition,
etc., which the thieves had thrown from the
car, were found nearly mile back from the
point where the robbery was discovered 1t
is supposed that the brakes were set by the
thieves to prevent fast running while they
were engaged in distributing their plunder
along the line of the road. 1t is thought the
robbers scereted themselves on the cars be-
fore the train left Pttsburg, and, as soon as
they were beyond the city limits, forced open
the doors. They then threw out a number
of guns and ammunition. 1t is thought the
men got away Nth some Of the arms Sew
eral theories have been advanced as to why
the cars loaded with arms we're selected. 1t
10 thought that the gang may have been Anar-
chists, and that they we're trying to secure
rifles and ammunition for future use. They
evidently seem to have known beforehand
what the contents of the car we're, ~ both of
those broken open contained arms.

Accident on the Fitchburg Railroad-An

WESTMINSTER DEPoT, Mass, Jan. IG.
The western express on the FitchbuIg
railroad, due in Boston at 3 p NJ was
wrecked this afternoon about o'clock at
Westminster, BY broken rail west of the
depot at a switch, causing derailment. The
train consisted of three Pullman sleepers
a passenger coach, smoker and baggage car
The engine, baggage car and one sleeper
went over the rail safely. The sleeper La.
doga was completely overturned and ran
distance of an eighth of a mile on its side
The sleeper Newcastle was smashed in at the
forward end. The passenger coach was
twisted sideways of the track. the smoker
clicging to the track. Six freight ears on a
side track were sent over on their sides and
the two main tracks are completely blockad-
ed. 1t is miraculous that no one was ser-
ously injured, but beyond fe~ slight bruises
the passengers escaped.
In the special Pullman Eimrod, which
went over the rail all right. was Mrs. Hoyt,
of German cologae fame, who was returning
from S southern trip in An enfeebIed condi-
ton. In the Lodoga the only passengers
were Mrs. James Wilson and child of Au-
gusta, Me-. and beyond 4 slight shaking up
were all right. This was the car that went
over. In the Newcastle were Capt I. A
Kendall, U. S. A, and wife, Of Cleveland
O.. w. H. Farmer, insurance agent, Con-
ductor Warner and Porter Primer, who were
slightly bruised. In the passenger coach
were some thirty passengers, who were un-
tremendously shaken up, but none were
even bruised. The Lorengo troupe of Chica-
go we're in this car. The smoker contained
but four passenge.s. Fortunately the lamps
were not lighted in any Of the cars and not
even . spark ignited from the stoves. Divis-
ion Superintendent J. F. Adams summoned
two physicians, who we're transferred and
taken to Fitchburg to attend anv who might
need medical aid.
Wrecking trains from Fitchburg are here,
but it will be midnight before the track can
possibly be cleared. Meanwhile the passen-
gers are being transferred.
